Abolish the TSA: Like the war on (some) drugs, the negative externalities arising from the TSA are costing us dearly for no benefit.
Personally, I’ll be driving whenever it’s practical.

I expect rules to go in place shortly that will forbid the use of cameras and recording devices near screening areas, for the children of course.

I’m not sure why that picture seems to be making the rounds now. It’s 3 years old. Not indicative of any new policies of absurdities.

did not know that.

I’m pretty much certain I’m never going to fly again. It just means I’ll have to head to Alaska by boat for vacations (since I can’t get into Canada with a 4 year old OWI on a 4 wheeler at deer camp).
Thanks Uncle, you’re the only blog that’s kept my interest and kept me coming back every day! (And hopefully years to come!)

I would love to some porn theme music to play while they are doing this. Would be hilarious.

Just wait until they try to do that to some muslim woman in full muslim garb.

Unfortunately, my company requires flight for travel. I have asked for train, bus, or reimbursement for POV travel, all have been denied. I will NOT be stepping through the scanners, instead opting for the pat-down. I will not fly domestically for any personal reason again.

Gunmart –
If that hasn’t happened by now, it never will.

In the unexpected event I fly again during this unpleasantness, I will be wearing a formal kilt in my clan tartan.
Groper beware. It bites back.

This is part of the problem-reaction-solution police-state training. It’s good that there is growing resistance.

Play this out. The Lamestream media are jumping all over this right now. So figure something is done to limit the TSA, then when the next incident takes place, they’ll scream; “See what you Teapartiers have done to endanger airline safety! You bastards!” and then the screening will get even more 1984. They’ll say; “We played it your way, and look where it got us…You and your stupid ‘freedom’…”

I would find this photo much more amusing if it were a priest….. They are used to such things…

I’m waiting for the terrorists to run a transvestite woman thru the scanners with an artificial penis made of plasic explosives. I bet even these methods wouldn’t catch it. And then what will they do?

I’m waiting for the Bali Butt Bomber.
Once a disaster has been caused by someone with Semtex shoved up his butt, no one will get on a plane or bus without a cavity search.
Tell me this isn’t where we’re heading.

This is so old. The flag only has 49 stars.
Unless they don’t claim Missourah as a state either.

I have made up a t-shirt that is perfect for all the times you get fondled by the TSA.

Ask ’em which line you should get-in, “Circumcised or Uncircumcised?”
Muslim women are exempt from the searches, go figure.

DirtCrashr: Cite? That’s simply too stupid to be believed without evidence, even to this jaded individual.
November 15th, 2010 at 9:21 pm
Don’t fly so not a problem for me.
But it is still wrong and if I do have to fly I am taking my neice and her little ones with instructions that when the Bad Peoples start touching them they start screaming at the top of the lungs “MOMMY!!!The Bad Mans is touching my private parts!!”
I have heard CAIR wants to exempt Muslims but not sure where that is at.
November 15th, 2010 at 9:36 pm
perlhaqr: your intuition is correct, of course. There are no religious exemptions to TSA requirements…but in the modern outrage-osphere, it’s no surprise that sort of nonsense is making the rounds.
November 15th, 2010 at 10:28 pm
perlhaqr,
Seems Bitter at SIH just had an experience coming home from Nashville, and, IIRC relayed as to how a Muslim woman was allowed to pat down her own scarf?
November 15th, 2010 at 10:40 pm
I think it was CAIR suggesting/demanding that burqa wearing “females” be pat down only around the head and neck. Too lazy to make a link; google it yerself, man.

So why haven’t any muslims bombed a security checkpoint yet? It makes a lot more sense than a plane these days as far as the amount of chaos and the number of dead it would create. Keep doing it at the edge of the “security” areas as they are legislatively or administratively widened past the point of absurdity, then keep going. It would destroy air travel and possibly result in martial law.
The fact it hasn’t happened makes me think that these latest airplane bombs were simply false flag operations meant to flush someone out; either side could gain a benefit were they the perpetrators.

Don’t just “opt out” of naked scanners only to be sexually molested, instead. Boycott Flying COMPLETELY, until sanity returns! Please join us: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Boycott-Flying/126801010710392

Great condescension, Sebastian, except for one small detail: it might not be in the regs, but the good folks at CAIR are already going down that road.
